Maybe it's the other way round. Do you know for sure if Mandelson is "the back end of the horse" ?

Or "the nut for a Brazilian bolt"?

Yes, he has certainly been making his presence felt during this campaign. He was popping up in all sorts of marginals, standing firmly behind a host of vulnerable candidates, selflessly offering to get right behind them and help thrust them forward whenever he felt their resolve needed stiffening.
Now if it all comes crashing down for him, he can always forge a new career offering mortgage advice and buggering Brazilians.

14 posts. I wondered how long it would take .....

She said that about Michael Howard.

Her words about Mandelson are unprintable.

Yes, I certainly would not want him anywhere near MY key marginals!

I saw Mandelscum on the TV last night, next to Eric Pickles and some chappy from the LibDems, slouching in his chair looking utterly sly and arrogant, claiming Gordon has the duty to form a government etc etc.

It actually made me feel physically sick to think what Mandelscum and his cohorts are doing to Britain.

Anyone with any decency would have said “OK, we lost, now and you chaps should start talking about a coalition”, but this hideous slither of primordial slime actually had the temerity to suggest that his party of Gerrymanders and war criminals have a mandate to try and form a government. Don’t say ‘the constitution says this’ because there isn’t a written constitution.

Ann Widdicome once said that he had something of the night about him, having watched him over the past few weeks I have to agree with her.

Wasn't that re - Michael Howard??

Just now on the Beeb.

He looked old and tired, and although he stuck to the party line, it was clear that all the enthusiasm was gone: he knew he was defeated.

Given that Mandelson has chosen to play the role of Machiavellian genius, watching him fall was nice

Mods, how did that word get through the swear filter?

[shaunbhoy]

I thought Mandelson came over OK considering he'd been up all night

At least there was some good news last night.

Jacqui Smith lost.

It's Friday now

Ah, NF.

Certainty in an uncertain world...

<stumbles bleary eyed to the PC>

Any news?

No.

We need the rest of the results to work out whether a Brown lead government is viable with the support of a collection of other politicians.

EDIT: or if a Conservative + Liberal coalition could sink him.

EDIT AGAIN: or if they would even agree to that.

You are probably going to have to wait until Sunday to find out.
